Stripping Bamboo question

I have an old H-I rod I want to bring back to life. I plan on replacing the cork and reel seat, all guides. The rod is wrapped about every inch and a half. Can i eliminate these wraps or do they need to be redone? They must be there for a purpose or is it just looks? I appreciate any help or comments, thanks, Jonezee
